Definitions
- the invention relates to the measurement, on a sample formed of a substrate provided with a coating, of the thickness of this coating.
- thermoplastic material such as PET (polyethylene terephthalate).
- barrier layers based on hydrogenated amorphous carbon, type PLC (polymer like carbon) or DLC (diamond like carbon), deposited by plasma vapor phase (PECVD).
- the quality of the barrier layer - i.e., its ability to retard gas migration - is highly dependent on its thickness.
- the layer is rarely homogeneous Indeed, it has variations in thickness according to the parts of the container (bottom, body, neck) . If the presence of the barrier layer is easily detectable (it turns yellow in effect a container originally transparent and colorless), its variations in hue depending on the parts of the container are imperceptible to the naked eye.
- a conventional method is to perform regularly on treated containers a physical measurement, for example by means of a profilometer.
- a container is provided on the production line provided on its internal face with at least one adhesive. Once processed, the container is removed; the area provided with the adhesive is cut and the adhesive removed.
- the profilometer measure the height of the difference in level between the area initially provided with the adhesive (and therefore uncoated) and the surrounding area, coated: this difference in height corresponds to the thickness of the coating.
- this method makes it possible to accurately measure the thickness of the barrier layer, it nevertheless requires lengthy preparations and numerous manipulations, which prevent its spontaneous application to a production line. Indeed, in the event that a drift is noted, the time elapsed between the sampling of the container and the obtaining of measurements is large enough that a large number (up to several thousand) of containers have already been treated so incorrect, all these containers must be discarded. That is why this method is generally used only as a simple spot check of the quality of treatment.
- a first, proposed by the company Hokkai Can in its European patent application EP 1,500,600 is based on the coloring properties of the barrier layer. It consists of successively illuminating an uncoated container and a coated container, then comparing in a CIE mark L * a * b *, by means of a colorimeter, the respective values of the parameter b * of the transmitted light. It is stated in this document, in fact, that the presence of the barrier layer results in an increase in the parameter b *, characteristic of a saturation in the yolk, the variation ⁇ b * being supposed to increase with the thickness of the layer . according to this document, it is desirable for the variation ⁇ b * to be between 2 and 7.
- the correlation function between the variation ⁇ b * and the thickness of the layer is not provided, a single example being presented, according to which a variation ⁇ b * of 3 points corresponds to a thickness of the layer of 0.04 ⁇ m (ie 40 nm).
- the wall of the controlled container transmits yellow.
- the containers are mostly colorless: they are therefore almost transparent at the wavelengths of the entire visible spectrum (400-780 nm, for the memory, the yellow extends between 577 and 600 nm). The problem of transmission in the yellow does not arise.
- this method is obviously inapplicable to colored containers, or more exactly to containers whose color absorbs yellow (it is well known that blue, in particular, absorbs yellow).
- the problem of controlling the thickness on this type of container is therefore not solved by the document Hokkai Can.
- a second method proposed by the Plastipak company in its international application WO 2004/012999 (see also the US equivalent US 2004/0065841), the wall of the container is illuminated in the ultraviolet light, and it is determined, from the quantity of light transmitted through the wall, the thickness of the coating.
- the invention aims in particular to overcome the aforementioned drawbacks, by proposing a method of controlling the thickness of a coating on the wall of a container (and by extension on any substrate), which allows to overcome the color of it.
- the invention proposes a method for controlling, on a sample composed of a substrate provided with a coating, the thickness of the coating at at least one predetermined control point, said method comprising a calibration step comprising the following operations: a) providing a test sample, of the same manufacture as the sample to be checked; b) selecting on the test sample a predetermined measuring point; c) illuminating the test sample with a white light beam focused on the coating at a predetermined measurement point; d) collect the part of the beam transmitted through the test sample; e) establishing the spectrum of light intensity transmitted through the test sample over a predetermined range of wavelengths; f) comparing this spectrum with the preset spectrum of the transmitted light intensity at the same measurement point through an uncoated sample of the same manufacture as the sample to be tested; g) identify a bandwidth common to both spectra, where a difference between them can be detected; h) selecting within this bandwidth a wavelength corresponding to a difference between the two spectra, i) measuring the value of the transmitted
- This method makes it possible to measure the thickness of the coating whatever the color of the substrate.
- the wavelength selected during the operation h) preferably corresponds to a transmission peak.
- T ⁇ (P) is the transmission coefficient at the point P at the wavelength ( ⁇ ) selected during the operation h),
- T m (P) is the transmission coefficient at point P in the infrared at the wavelength IR selected during operation h 1 ), a and b are constants;
- R is the average, for a set of measurement points P selected on one or more uncoated test containers similar to the container to be inspected, of a weighting coefficient R (P) and defined as follows:
- the measuring step comprises the following operations: m ') measuring the transmitted light intensity, at the control point, through the sample to be monitored, at the selected IR wavelength in the infrared at the operation h '), n') deducing, from the transmission coefficients measured during the operations m) and m ') and from the correlation function established in the calibration step, the thickness of the coating at the point of control.
- the IR wavelength selected in the infrared during the operation h ') is preferably greater than or equal to 800 nm; it is for example equal to about 1000 nm.
- the steps a) to d), i), j) and k) are repeated for a plurality of similar test samples.
- the wavelength range chosen in the operation e) is preferably between 300 and 1200 nm.
- This method can be applied to the control of the thickness of a coating, for example amorphous carbon, the substrate being able to be made in a thermoplastic material.
- samples it may be, as mentioned above, containers whose coated wall is the substrate.

- FIG. 2 is a graph showing the superposition of two spectra established on the same predetermined range of wavelengths, namely: the spectrum of the light intensity transmitted through the wall of a violet-colored container coated with a hydrogenated amorphous carbon barrier layer during a PECVD treatment of 2.5s duration; the spectrum of light intensity transmitted through the wall of a container of the same manufacture,
- FIG. 3 is a graph showing the superposition of two spectra established on the same predetermined range of wavelengths, namely: the spectrum of the light intensity transmitted through the wall of an amber-colored container coated with a hydrogenated amorphous carbon barrier layer deposited by PECVD treatment of a duration of 2.5s; the spectrum of light intensity transmitted through the wall of a container of the same manufacture, uncoated;
- FIG. 4 is a graph showing an example of a correlation function between a quantity, called the relative thickness (function of the transmission), and the thickness of the coating;
- Figure 5 finally, is an elevational sectional view showing a device for implementing the method according to the invention.
- the invention aims to allow non-destructive testing of the thickness of a coating which is provided with a substrate capable of transmitting at least a portion of the light spectrum.
- the substrate is constituted by the wall of a container of thermoplastic material (for example PET), taken from a production line at the outlet of a processing unit in which on the container, previously blown, is deposited a thin film having barrier properties.
- this deposit is indifferently called coating or layer (barrier).
- the treatment time has a direct impact on the thickness of the layer, without it being possible at this time to establish a reliable correlation between these two parameters, notably because of the lack of homogeneity of the layer. following the parts of the container, this lack of homogeneity may itself result, at least in part, the shape of the bottle, whose diameter is not necessarily constant.
- the process according to the invention comprises, schematically, two main steps, namely: a calibration step, aimed, from physical measurements of the actual thickness of the coating, to establish a correlation function between the thickness; on the one hand and, on the other hand, an optically measured coefficient of transmission of light through the wall of the coated container (remember that the incident light striking the wall is partly reflected, partly absorbed). , and partly transmitted: the transmission coefficient is a dimensionless quantity between 0 and 100, which designates the percentage of transmitted light), and a control step, according to which the transmission coefficient mentioned above is measured on a container to be tested. , to calculate from the correlation function established in the calibration step, the thickness of the coating at the control point.
- This method is intended to allow a measurement of the thickness of the coating regardless of the color of the container, that is to say that it is colorless, or that pigments have been mixed with the thermoplastic material in which it is made.
- the measurements given by way of example, carried out on two colored containers will be explained below.
- a “set” is a set of similar containers.
- the calibration step, illustrated in FIG. 1A comprises a first operation a) of supplying a test container, coated, similar to the container on which it is desired to carry out the measurement of thickness (container to be inspected).
- a second operation b) consists in selecting on the test container a measuring point, marked by its cylindrical coordinates on the container (height h, measured from the bottom of the container, radius r, measured from the main axis of the container , and angular position ⁇ , measured from a reference position about the main axis).
- a third operation c) is to illuminate the wall of the container, preferably on the side of the coating, by means of a white light beam of light focused on the coating at the point of measurement.
- white light is meant light extending over a wavelength range from ultraviolet to infrared.
- the inventors have found that a light source emitting in a range of wavelengths between 300 and 1200 nm makes it possible to obtain significant measurements regardless of the color of the container.
- the choice of the light source is left to the discretion of the person skilled in the art.
- Two technologies have been successfully tested: the first is to combine two lamps, namely a tungsten filament halogen incandescent lamp
- the second is to use a single Xenon discharge type lamp, which emits white light covering the 300-1200 nm range.
- This range is particularly suitable for measuring on PET containers.
- This material has indeed the following optical properties: - in the ultraviolet, it is almost opaque for wavelengths lower than 300 nm, in the infrared (for wavelengths greater than 800 nm), it presents a optical behavior extremely close to that of carbon coatings (their absorption peaks, in particular, almost coincide). In particular, it is difficult to determine which of the receptacle or the coating is the source of of an observed absorption of the light beam, which renders in these wavelengths unusable measurements.
- a fourth operation d) consists of collecting, on the other side of the wall, the part of the beam transmitted through it.
- a fifth operation e) consists in establishing the spectrum of the transmitted light intensity (or spectral curve) through the wall over a predetermined range of wavelengths, included in - or preferably coinciding with - the aforementioned range, either 300-1200 nm.
- a sixth operation f) consists in comparing this spectrum with a predetermined spectrum of the light intensity transmitted through the wall of a container similar to the test container (that is to say similar to the container to be tested). but not coated, and at the same point of measurement (that is, at a point with the same coordinates). This operation is illustrated in FIGS.
- FIG. 2 and 3 on each of which the spectra of the light intensity transmitted, as a function of the wavelength, are shown through the wall of two similar containers made of PET, one of which uncoated and the other coated with a plasma-deposited amorphous carbon barrier layer of 2.5s duration: in FIG. 2, for a purple-colored container, in FIG. 3, for a colored container amber.
- the spectra of the coated container and the uncoated container exhibit the same variations, and in particular the same transmission and absorption peaks, which tends to show that the colorimetric deviation generated by the coating is very small. low.
- a seventh operation g) consists in locating a bandwidth common to both spectra, where a difference between them can be detected.
- a bandwidth between 350 and 450 nm that is to say in the violet and the ultraviolet is marked.
- An eighth operation h) consists in selecting in the bandwidth indicated during the operation f) a wavelength corresponding to a difference between the spectra. Although within the bandwidth, several wavelengths clearly meet this criterion, the choice will preferably be made on a wavelength corresponding to a peak of transmission, for which the transmission coefficient is stable (the slope spectrum is low or zero), so its measurement is relatively reliable.
- a ninth operation i) consists in measuring, from the spectrum of the test container (coated), the intensity transmitted through the wall of the container and deducing, by calculating the quotient between the transmitted light intensity and the light intensity. incident, the transmission coefficient at the wavelength selected in the operation h), this coefficient is then stored.
- the transmission coefficient at the selected wavelength (410 nm) is 57%, whereas in the case of the amber-colored container ( Figure 3), the transmission coefficient at the selected wavelength (370 nm) is 26%.
- step k) consists in measuring in each of them, in a physical way (for example by means of a profilometer, according to the procedure described briefly in introduction), the actual thickness of the coating.
- operations a), b), c), d), i) and k) can be repeated for several similar coated test containers, for example having undergone treatments of different durations (the thicknesses of their respective coatings). therefore assumed to be different), so as to have a sufficient number of pairs (transmission coefficient, actual thickness) to enable a reliable correlation to be established between these two parameters.
- the following operation I) consists in establishing a correlation function between, on the one hand, the transmission coefficient at the wavelength selected during the operation h), and the thickness of the coating on the other hand. This function is then used to calculate, from a measurement of transmission on the container to be controlled, the thickness of the coating at the point (s) of control.
- the calibration step is completed.
- the results of the optical and physical measurements are stored, for each range of containers on which it is planned to carry out a thickness control of the coating, in order to be exploited during the control step, as we will now to see him.
- the control step comprises an operation m) for measuring the light intensity transmitted, at the control point, through the wall of the container to be checked, at the wavelength selected during operation g), and a calculation operation n), from the measurement performed at m) and the correlation function, the thickness of the coating at the control point.
- the control step comprises, prior to the measurement operation m), the following operations: a first operation a ') consisting in providing the container for check, for example by removing it on the production line at the end of the processing unit in which the coating is deposited; a second operation b ') of selecting the desired control point; a third operation c ') of illuminating the wall of the container at the control point by means of a focused light beam at this point; this beam may be white light, as in the calibration step, or a monochromatic or polychromatic light covering the wavelength selected during the operation g); a fourth operation of) of collecting the beam portion transmitted through the wall of the container.
- a first - the simplest - is to draw a cloud of points from the doublets of measurements (optical and physical) made during the calibration step, and then calculate by interpolation a correlation function. If this method has the advantage of simplicity, it can however lead to uncertainties due to the choice of the interpolation model (polynomial, trigonometric, exponential, etc.).
- any abnormal variation of the transmission is due to a structural modification of the substrate (presence of inclusions or variation of thickness by example) compared to a statistical average found on the production line.
- a measurement made in the infrared is therefore used to weight the measurement carried out at the wavelength ⁇ so as to minimize on this measurement the possible transmission differences due to the defects of the substrate and its variations in thickness which are not lacking. not to appear from one test container to another.
- a first operation h ' contemporaneous with the operation h), of selecting a wavelength (denoted by IR convenience) in the infrared (preferably in the mid-infrared, where the spectrum is relatively stable, beyond 800 nm, and for example about 1000 nm), and a second operation i '), contemporary of the operation i), consisting of measuring the value the transmitted light intensity corresponding to this wavelength on the spectrum of the test container.
- a first operation h ' contemporaneous with the operation h), of selecting a wavelength (denoted by IR convenience) in the infrared (preferably in the mid-infrared, where the spectrum is relatively stable, beyond 800 nm, and for example about 1000 nm)
- a second operation i ' contemporary of the operation i), consisting of measuring the value the transmitted light intensity corresponding to this wavelength on the spectrum of the test container.
- operation i ' is repeated for each measuring point and for each test vessel.
- the operation I) for determining the correlation function is then carried out as follows.
- R is the arithmetic mean, for a set of measuring points P selected on one or more test vessels, similar to the container to be inspected but not coated, of a size without dimension, which, for each doublet of optical measurements (transmission coefficient at the wavelength ⁇ and transmission coefficient in the infrared at the wavelength IR) carried out at the point P, is equal to the ratio of the logarithms of these coefficients:
- RiP ⁇ ⁇ An lnT m (P)
- the actual thickness measured physically at each point P is a substantially linear function of the relative thickness at the same point, calculated in accordance with the above method.
- the following table provides a series of doublets obtained for a plurality of measuring points distributed on each of the containers.
- An additional operation m '), contemporaneous with the operation m), consists in measuring the transmitted light intensity, at the control point, through the wall of the container to be controlled, at the wavelength IR, and an operation n '), contemporaneous with the operation n), consisting of calculating, from these measurements, the thickness relative to the measuring point, which is used during the operation n) to deduce, from the function correlation established in the calibration step, the thickness of the coating.
- the process just described has a double advantage. First, it makes it possible to perform coating thickness measurements on colored containers. Then, by using an appropriate correlation function, it makes it possible to minimize the effects of the defects and thickness variations of the substrate.
- optical measurements described above can be performed at means of a device 1 as shown in FIG. 5.
- This device 1 comprises a dark chamber (not shown) containing a rotating support 2 on which is placed the container 3 (successively the (s) container (s) test (s) and the container to control).
- the device 1 also comprises a source 4 of white light, here represented schematically, which generates a parallel light beam 5 (in phantom), guided by a periscope 6.
- the periscope 6, introduced into the container 3 through the neck 7 thereof, is provided at its end opposite the light source 4, a mirror 8, which radially reflects the beam 5, and an opening 9 in which is mounted a convergent optical system (in this case a lens 10) focusing the beam 5 on the coating at the point of measurement (respectively at the control point).
- a convergent optical system in this case a lens 10
- the support 2 is movable vertically, so that it is possible to adjust in height and angle the position of the container 3 relative to the periscope 6, so as to be able to place the point (measurement or control) to be illuminated at the focal point of the lens 10.
- the periscope 6 is provided with a sliding ring 11 which cooperates with the neck 7 of the container 3 to ensure the centering thereof with respect to the axis of rotation of the support 2.
- the device 1 further comprises an optical sensor 12 disposed outside the container 3 facing the opening 9 of the periscope 6 to collect the transmitted portion of the light beam 5.
- the sensor 12 and the light source 4 are both connected to a spectrophotometer 13 by means of which the transmitted light intensity measurements are carried out for the range of wavelengths chosen, and by means of which the spectra referred to above are established. .
